  1. Functoriality of Rieffel's Generalised Fixed-Point Algebras for Proper Actions.

    Abstract

    We consider two categories of C*-algebras; in the first, the isomorphisms are
    ordinary isomorphisms, and in the second, the isomorphisms are Morita
    equivalences. We show how these two categories, and categories of dynamical
    systems based on them, crop up in a variety of C*-algebraic contexts. We show
    that Rieffel's construction of a fixed-point algebra for a proper action can be
    made into functors defined on these categories, and that his Morita equivalence
    then gives a natural isomorphism between these functors and crossed-product
    functors.
